Chapter 302 As Long As I’m Here, This Boy Will Not Kick The Bucket

The doors of the Infirmary remained shut for five hours straight before an exhausted looking Professor Galena opened the door and motioned for Professor Barret to enter.

“I don’t have the strength to deal with you, girls,” Professor Galena said as she looked at Chloe, Luna, Lily, Emma, and Nicole, who had all come to check Ethan’s condition. “Just know that Ethan won’t kick the bucket anytime soon. Also, he is not allowed to have any visitors for the next few days.

“Don’t bother coming here just to annoy me. Don’t worry, I will ask my Familiar to notify all of you once he regains consciousness. But until then, none of you are allowed to disturb his recovery. Barret, come.”

Professor Barret nodded and entered the infirmary.

The Healer of the Academy gave the girls one last glance before closing the door firmly and locking it in place.

Chloe, Luna, Emma, and Nicole all looked at Lily, whose eyes were already red from the tears that she had cried earlier.

Nicole, who was the only one who wasn’t considered part of Ethan’s harem, sighed before clapping her hands together.

“All of you should get a grip,” Nicole stated. “Ethan is no longer in danger, so you don’t have to worry about his condition. Granted, he will need to spend a few days here to recover, but he has a strong will. I’m sure that he will bounce back as if nothing has happened.”

Emma was the first one to recover and nodded her head in agreement.

“Nicole is right,” Emma stated. “I won’t tell you girls to not worry about Ethan because I am worried about him myself. However, I believe that he will make a full recovery. So, for the time being, let us listen to Professor Galena’s words and wait for him to regain consciousness.”

After saying those words, Emma turned around and left the infirmary. Her steps were steady, but if one paid closer attention to her, it would be seen that her hands, which dangled by her sides, were trembling slightly.

She was very tempted to fight against Lily’s older brother, but she knew that she wasn’t a match against him.

However, that didn’t mean that she would take this incident lightly.

She would report what had happened to the Meredith Clan so that they could share the news with the other Protector Clans.

As to how they would react to this incident, Emma had no idea. But she was sure that they wouldn’t just sit by and let their Young Master be bullied by the Beast Clans from Southshire without retaliation.

Inside the Infirmary…

“How is he?” Professor Barret asked.

“Barely alive,” Professor Galena replied. “He used up a lot of his life force, so it will take some time before he regains his senses. I will need to ask Rinehart to give me some ingredients to make an Elixir to hasten his recovery. I’m afraid that without it, this boy might stay in a coma for a month or two.”

Professor Barret nodded. “Understood. Just give me a list of the ingredients. I’ll have it prepared as soon as possible.”

Professor Galena was prepared and handed Professor Barret a scroll containing the list of all ingredients that she would need for the Elixir.

After checking its contents, Professor Barret nodded because although some of the ingredients were rare, they could be bought in some places for a high price.

“I’ll talk to Rinehart,” Professor Barret stated. “Make sure to look after him. This academy needs him.”

“Just who do you think I am?” Professor Galena clicked her tongue. “As long as I’m here, this boy will not kick the bucket.”

Professor Barret smiled before nodding his head in agreement.

He then teleported to where Professor Rinehart was and informed him about Ethan’s current condition.

After checking the list that Professor Barret had given him, the corner of Professor Rinehart’s lips twitched.

“… That crazy girl,” Professor Rinehart muttered. “Is she planning to use Ethan as a Guinea Pig to try one of her prototype potions?”

“Well, she looked and sounded confident this time,” Professor Barret smirked. “Although she can be eccentric with her self-made potions, they can do wonders from time to time… At least two every five tries.”

Professor Rinehart snorted. “You are lucky that she succeeded with the potion she used on you. Otherwise, you might have become a toad by now.”

Professor Barret ignored his close friend’s comment and asked him the question that was on his mind.

“Where are Lily’s Older Brother and Sister?” Professor Barret asked.

“They already left,” Professor Rinehart replied. “They knew that Lily wasn't in the right state of mind to listen or see them, so they decided to just leave for the time being. I’m guessing that they will be staying in Limeburgh Town for a day or two before they return to Southshire.”

Professor Barret nodded his head in understanding. “I wonder how HE will react to the news. What do you think?”

The Headmaster of Brynhildr Academy pondered for a while before shaking his head.

“That person only cares about strength,” Professor Rinehart stated. “I don’t know whether Ethan and Lily are currently dating, but after what happened today. I’m sure that he will be more curious about his daughter’s lover.”

Professor Barret pondered for a bit before passing an important piece of information to the Headmaster of the Academy, making Professor Rinehart arch his eyebrow.

“Is this confirmed?” Professor Rinehart asked.

“Not yet,” Professor Barret replied. “But, if it is, we need to prepare.”

Professor Rinehart smiled as he played with his beard.

A moment later, a chuckle left his lips as he thought about the Headmaster of Nightfall Academy, Nero.

“Don’t worry,” Professor Rinehart stated. “If what you say is true, I know of a good method that will clear all doubts and speculations surrounding this issue.”

“You mean, you’re going to do THAT?” Professor Barret asked.

Professor Rinehart nodded. “Of course. Since Brynhildr Academy already has it, it must remain in the academy no matter what.”

Professor Barret also smiled when he heard his close friend’s words.

“I’ll go and gather the ingredients,” Professor Barret stated. “You go and hold down the fort.”

“Of course,” Professor Rinehart commented. “Come back as soon as you can.”

Professor Barret nodded before teleporting away from the academy.

He had some places to visit and people to talk to.

Ethan was an important member of Brynhildr Academy, and they would be damned if they let him stay in a coma for one to two months while trouble was brewing outside of their doorstep.
